This is a magic cooking trick that is sure to deliver delicious rewards. Read on to learn how to use marshmallows to make your own marshmallow fluff at home!
What is a substitute for marshmallow cream? You can make marshmallow cream by melting down marshmallows with corn syrup. I would suggest 2 cups of mini marshmallows with ¼ cup of corn syrup.
Can I use jumbo marshmallows instead of mini?
Yes, you can. Mini-marshmallows tend to be easier to measure than their larger counterparts, but you can use this quick trick to ensure you get the right ratio: 8-10 large ones typically equal 1 cup of miniature marshmallows. To help them melt quicker and more evenly, slice the jumbo marshmallows in half or quarters before starting the recipe.
Will it brown under the broiler?
To the best of our experimentation, yes. The homemade fluff seems to react pretty much in the same way as the kind from the jar.
Like fluff or melted marshmallows, slightly wet or buttered hands will help in handling the mixture to avoid it sticking to you. Spraying your storage container with non-stick spray can work wonders, too.
